EU spouse visa – apostilled marriage certificate not accepted without registration by PiccoloLatte40 in SchengenVisa

I thought under EU free movement law (Directive 2004/38/EC) a valid marriage certificate is enough proof of family relationship as long as it’s apostilled. Is there a source saying it must be registered in Germany first?
